request to meet with israel's prime minister. at least for now. here is the story. the white house claims it is nothing because scheduling conflict and it is not ruling out a meeting with benjamin netanyahu. but it comes as benjamin netanyahu is pressuring the united states to take a tougher stand against iran. in the show down over its nuclear program. tonight the associated press is reporting the u.n. has new intelligence that shows iran is getting even closer to building a nuclear weapon. ed henry there. what's the white house saying about this, ed? >> all of this is so important because of what you just mentioned about the a.p. report about iran moving closer to getting nuclear weapons. what benjamin netanyahu wants is the president to lay out what he calls red line. about what actions by iran in terms of moving closer to a nuclear weapon would prompt military strike by the u.s. white house officials tell me that the president will be in new york for the u.n. meetings on monday, september 24, tuesday, the 25. and netanyahu doesn't arrive into new york until later that

week. so the schedule just does not work. they insist this is not a snub. we spoke earlier to a member of the canes is the who insists it is. >> i think president obama knows that prime minister netanyahu will ask him, what are you going to do regarding iran? how long you want us to wait? maybe he wants to avoid that meeting. >> now, mitt romney, is a personal friend of benjamin netanyahu for many years and recently tried to use some of the tensions between the u.s. and israel to claim that president obama has thrown israel under the bus. he said that in tampa at the republican convention. the white house, of course, has denied that. >> shep: this comes right after the flap at the democratic national convention over jerusalem. >> that's right. they had originally taken out language messengering jerusalem as the capitol of israel after a firestorm of criticism, the democrats pulled back on that. the president personally intervened and got that language back in. number one. and number two, in his acceptance speech, we should not

forget the president tried to reassure israel about it being a strong ally. take a listen. >> our commitment to israel security must not waiver and neither must our pursuit of peace. >> aspoke to a senior official earlier tonight who assured me that this could all be worked out potentially and maybe on the friday of that week, they will, in fact, have a meeting between the president and the prime minister, but that official also told me it's an election year. it's possible the president may have a campaign event that day in a battle ground state and this will not come together. if the president campaigning instead of doing this meeting, it's only gog add more fuel to the fire. >> shep: ed henry, thanks so much. we've been watching the absolute chaos today at the u.s. embassy in egypt. thousands of angry protesters there stormed the walls of the place, climbed them, ripped down the american flag, warning shots fired. coming up, you'll learn exactly why these demonstrators are so upset. that's ahead from the journalist

all together -- leave egypt all together. now just developing, a similar incident across the border in libya where militants apparently stormed a u.s. consulate. the fox report chief correspondent jonathan hunt has the details. was there official reaction to this yet? >> u.s. embassy officials in cairo tonight seem to be trying to defuse a protest that is actually growing by the hour. we understand the thousands of protesters are now outside the u.s. embassy in cairo where officials released a statement which seemed to accept that this protest is the result of this reportedly anti-muslim movie that is being proposalled by the internet by some anti-muslim campaigners. in the statement, those officials said in part, quote, respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of american democracy. we firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others.

among those who have reportedly promoted this movie, florida christian church leader terry jones. you'll remember him. he threatened to burn the koran in 2010. whatever the cause of these protests, state department spokeswoman said earlier today they should not be overestimated. listen. >> one of the things about the new egypt is that protest is possible. obviously we all want to see a peaceful protest, which is not what happened outside the u.s. mission. so we're trying to restore calm now. >> now we hear of this similar incident outside the u.s. consulate in benghazi, libya. and sky news, our cousins across the pond in britain, are reporting tonight that the libyan interior ministry is saying that an american has been killed in the clashes there. >> shep: it is astounding to hear it from the analyst how either one person or one tiny group among 300 million people

in this country can cause this sort of a problem. we know it's not the first time we've seen this sort of protest. far from it. >> we remember, of course, the protests that happened after that christian church leader in florida, terry jones, proposed burning the koran back in 2010. then, of course, there were the protests across the middle east in 2005 after a danish magazine published caricatures of the prophet, mohammed. the concern now with this particular incident in egypt is this is the new egypt, the new egyptian president is a member of the muslim brother shed and there will be questions about security outside the u.s. embassy. u.s. marines are responsible for security up to the perimeter wall. egyptian security forces should have been there. one imagine would cost have spotted this group. there will be questions about what those egyptian security forces did then and are going to do now.

we're seeing a second day of a major teacher strike. one that has left nearly 30,000 teachers and staff walking picket lines. almost 400,000 school children with no place to go for classes. that's putting a lot of parents in a tight spot at work. >> i told them i couldn't make it in today because i didn't have child care. so i could not do my job 'cause i had nowhere to send my child today. >> shep: worth noting, chicago public school teachers are among the highest paid in the country, with average salary, army salaries of about $75,000. almost $20,000 higher than the national average. sources tell us that back in june, the teachers union was asking for raises between 25 and 35%. but we know the city offered 16% over four years and the teachers union president now says money is not the major issue in these negotiations. instead, performance evaluations have become a key sticking point. the union argues that the new system relies too heavily on

standardized test scores, without considering outside factors like student homelessness and poverty. still there is no sign the city of chicago is backing down at all. if unions lose this fight, the analysts say that could have a ripple effect all across the country. steve brown based in chicago for us and live on the street tonight. any update on the negotiations, steve? >> it does appear that they're still nibbling around the edges at the bargaining table. no progress reported either on the teacher evaluation system that you just noted or on a recall rights system that the teachers would like that laid off teachers would get priority in hire not guilty a new situation where teacher opening has school system doesn't like that one. so the teachers continue to walk and the mayor says negotiators will continue to talk. >> they are continuing to talk. they are working through the issues. i do believe that it was totally avoidable, totally unnecessary. it was a strike of choice and

the wrong choice for our children. >> and the strike appears to be spreading. we're getting word that come friday, janitors, if the strike is still going, will be able to legally go out on a sympathy strike. >> shep: violence is a big concern with all these kids out of school and a lot of them presumably in some ways unsupervised? >> yeah. prior to the strike, violence in the city was easily the number one problem here. we'd have weekends where dozens of people would be shot, death toll in the double digits, and easily this was something that was consuming the mayor's office. now that we have a teacher strike and kids not in school to keep them out of harm's way, some schools are open. 147 of them. that's from 8 to noon. announced if the strike goes further, those same sites will be open 'til 2:30 in the afternoon. almost a full school day, but still only 150,000 slots available for 400,000 kids. that means some won't have room

a $2 billion pot. now, axelrod was talking about this man, a man "forbes" magazine lists as america's 7th wealthiest worth an estimated by them, $25 billion. and the tweet linked to a report that claims the casino mogul would have saved more than $2 billion in taxes under a republican white house. but the romney campaign pushed back immediately, reporting in a statement, quote, today governor romney is focused on remembering those who lost their lives on 9-11, as well as recognizing the brave work done by our first responders and troops. not on launching petty political attacks. carl cameron is live in st. johns county in fellow that where governor romney is holding an event tomorrow. this is a tall order for campaigners. how effective were they in avoiding politics today? >> they gave it a good try. when you're eight weeks exactly from the election and someone like mitt romney who was invited to speak at the national guard

by virtue of his canned did city, it's kind of hard to avoid it. much of the way you mentioned in the statement that they had responding to david axelrod's tweet, romney in his remarks in reno, quickly said today was not a day for partisan politics and while under other circumstances he would be talking about the differences between himself and mr. obama, he would refrain as best he could from that today. having said that, speaking to the guardsmen, he was talking about military issues, veterans issues, and things related, and he went on to criticize president obama all be it indirectly, for what romney has complained is the president's willingness to let as much as a trillion dollars in defense cuts take place over the course of the next decade by not stepping in to stop the so-called sequestration fiscal cliff that is slated to hit at the beginning of this coming year if nothing is done. here is how he put it. >> the course of the return of our troops cannot and must not be used as an excuse to hollow out our military through devastating defense budget cuts.

>> while mr. romney pretty much steered clear of direct criticism of president obama today, the news about the nonimmediate meting with benjamin netanyahu is likely to come up in a serious way tomorrow. the romney campaign is expected to go after president obama for not meeting with the israeli leader, very aggressively tomorrow. >> shep: we'll see what the white house has to say about that in the morning. who knows? but there is a criticism, carl, of governor romney that he's, what, attending one event or holing but one rally a day? what is that about? >> yesterday the romney campaign was peppered with questions from reporters wondering why it appears to them that mr. romney isn't working all that hard. he does do a fund-raiser about every day. he's the first republican candidate since the the nixon eo have to raise money during the general election. that's a big part of his time. but it has been basically one event a day for several weeks. the romney campaign argues their singular message about

focused on jobs and the economy. >> shep: carl cameron, near saint augustine. thanks very much. for the first time this year, most americans say they trust the obama administration to handle the economy over governor romney. that's according to a new abc news poll, "washington post" poll. it's a slim lead for the president and within the margin of error. but it is the first lead of the year and a significant bump from just last month when that same poll showed him trailing governor romney by seven points. this is despite another month of weak jobs growth. and now the labor department reports employers listed fewer job openings in the month of july. get the details from john roberts in atlanta. hey, john. >> hey, shep. there thank is where it was

listed in the bureau of labor statistics. 3.7 million job openings at the end of july. that's down from june. flat from march. as bill clinton pointed out in a speech last week, there is still more than 3 million jobs out there that people haven't matched skills to. it's a particular problem in south dakota where they're desperately trying to fill more than 11,000 jobs. for example, at trail king, which makes specialized trailers for construction and hauling materials, they have had to hire a recruiter to go out and find not ceo's, not managers, not engineers, but welders. the ceo of the company here now. >> it's very frustrating for companies in this region because you hear about the 8% plus unemployment rate and we can't find enough people to fill the jobs. it's not only trail king. it's many, many companies throughout the dakotas. >> the problem is so bad, that the governor of the state has

hired manpower at a cost of 5 million-dollar to go out and recruit 1,000 new south dakotans. but even if it's 100% successful, there will be more than 10,000 jobs still unfilled. the governor says part of the problem is young people are not being educated for the 21st century economy. he's gone so far as to encourage some high school students to rethink the idea of college all together. >> we're trying to encourage more of our high school seniors to consider our technical schools as a good alternative o four-year degree. a shorter route to a good paying job often in many cases. >> he is very worried that the lack of people to fill those jobs may stall the economic recovery in his state or even worse, force some of those companies who can't find work force move out closer to large population centers where there is a deeper worker pool. shep? >> shep: john, thank you. al-qaeda is now dealing and has

been for a while, it would appear, with what may be its biggest setback since the raid that killed osama bin laden. because the man who took over for osama bin laden now confirms a drone strike in pakistan killed his second in command. the white house reported the deputy's death in june, but this is the first confirmation from the terrorist network n. a video posted on militant web site, the al-qaeda boss, called his lieutenant a lion of jihad and knowledge. now the lion is dead. and the world is, well, a bit safer. katherine herrage is live in washington. this particular terrorist became well-known when he broke out of that, or escaped out of the air base in bagram, afghanistan, right? >> going in these prisons often give them more street credits and turns them into rock stars. the key thing was the message is that it's really more evidence that the al-qaeda leadership in pakistan is damaged and diminished. few months after the fact,

confirming the death of the trusted lieutenant, the lag time suggesting he's cut off and deep in hiding, much like osama bin laden in his final days. while the video is posted on-line to mark the 9-11 anniversary, significantly there are no references to the attack and that's a sign that he may also rely on couriers. >> shep: it seems every 9-11 remembrance we talk about whether we're safer than we were on that day. what's the word from officials today? >> the threat of another attack on the scale of 9-11 has diminished. but u.s. officials say the likelihood of a small scale attack like fort hood in 2009 when 13 were killed has increased because the threat has diversified. these figures tonight come it us from the homeland security committee and and what most americans don't realize is we've had more home grown plots in the last three years and the majority of those plots have targeted the u.s. military. critics say many of these f.b.i. cases amount to entrapment, but

that accusation in a new report from the inspector general on the operation. the document is not yet public, but our journalist got ahold of portions of it. fast and furious was meant to track guns to mexican drug cartels, but the feds didn't keep tabs on some of those weapons and bandits left two of them at the scene of a shootout where the border agent, brian terry, died. now this new report indicates that dozens of officials ignored the safety of the public as they allowed fast and furious to proceed. william lajeunesse is live up in los angeles. >> that is an embarrassing admonition that u.s. officials knew the criminals were smuggling guns to mexico, they could have been stopped but were not. basically they allowed the investigation to override or overshadow public safety. the parts of the inspector general's report that we have obtained places blame on three atf supervisor bill knewle and others. their lawyers say the parts of the report are inaccurate and

unfair, that these agents in phoenix kept the tap brass in washington informed of the tactics and the number of weapons that they let go. newel's calls it a impartial analysis while another says it was drafted in a, quote, pseudo academic vacuum that ignores weak gun laws and inept u.s. attorney. another point of disagrees, how fast and furious began. the report suggests it was devised and carried out by these rogue agents in phoenix. those agents say it's not true. this was a top down strategy borne in washington in 2009 as part of an overall southwest border security strategy. so the full report is expected to be hundreds of pages long and we only saw a small portion of that, but it does provide us a glimpse, if you will, into the finger pointing, the back stabbing, the blame game that is about to happen as these key players try to save their job
